I have a console application and I have figured out how to type in the command window with Console.WriteLine() but i need to run a command (ex. net user) then wait for a response and type another command, for some reason I cant figure out how to type the command and automatically press enter without closing the window. I tried Console.WriteLine("net user") but all it does is write "net user" in the command window so I used My.Computer.Keyboard.SendKeys("{ENTER}", True) after Console.Writeline and it just wrote "net user" then exited the window. Is there any way to run a command through a console application? if so how would i do this?
I'm having trouble opening and running DOS commands through VB Express.I'm trying to have VB open a command console and enter path to a batch file. So far I have not been able to get VB to open a console and enter any text.[URL} Here is the code I am using right now (without success)
Private Declare Function GetShortPathName Lib "kernel32" Alias "GetShortPathNameA" (ByVal longPath As String, ByVal shortPath As String, ByVal shortBufferSize As Int32) As Int32 Private Sub des_date_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles des_date.Click
I want to create a console application with commands that can be entered by the user, but to make my application reconize those commands do I have to have an if statement for every command, or can I do something like this[code]...
I was thinking I could make a console application that would have a FileSystemWatcher - watching for a .BAT file being created in a folder - and when it sees that file it does a PROCESS.START on it.
I have a console application that is ready to be used as a windows service, I have been looking around for a couple of hours and tried many of the tutorials out there but none of them worked with me.
The closest one was: [URL] but it didn't go into the process of doing it. I converted that code to VB.NET but then I don't know where to go from there. I have the Module1.vb which runs my console application all ready to be used.
show me a way to use my console application as a service, I tried using the InstallUtil feature but my app never showed under "services".
I am new to Visual Basic and i started to write a console application. I it working fine by now, but I tried to execute a command like shutdown -s I tried that by writing
console.writeline("shutdown -s")
but all it dows it displays the text and does not shutdown the computer. How do I code that correctly???
I was thinking I could make a console application that would have a FileSystemWatcher - watching for a .BAT file being created in a folder - and when it sees that file it does a PROCESS.START on it. But I'm seeing that a console app doesn't continue running.
Imports System.IO Module awcWatcher Sub Main() Dim fsw As New FileSystemWatcher("D:ACS DesktopAWCeportingstaging") fsw.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.FileName Or NotifyFilters.LastWrite [Code] ..... How would I go about making this wait and then wait again and again and again?
When running a console application, the dos window disappears without asking for a "press any key to continue", why? What setting in 2010 is not set correctly?
I am writing a windows gui front-end for a game that uses 6 open cmd console windows. The cmd windows are already open, I do not need to launch them, I just need to be able to send a command to a named cmd window by pressing a button on my Visual Basic 2005 Express form.
I need to build an forms app that 'posts' or 'sends' text commands to an external console process, called Minecraft Server It is a java-based process, filename 'minecraft_server.jar'. Run by my computer via 'java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar nogui'. The Process ID I assume would change each time it's run. This process can be downloaded here: [URL]
I am guessing that I need to:
1) find the Process ID for it, based on its process details, such as Command Line
2) figure out a way to 'post' these commands, commands such as "stop" into the console window
I cannot have this process launched by my VB project.
I am using sub main and no application framework. This gets rid of the single instance option for the program. I want to be able to have my app handle mailto but it needs to be single instance.
I have: Public Sub Main(ByVal cmdArgs() As String) Dim tempProcess As Process
I understand running the command shell as a process, How would i run multiple arguments in that one process? For example, here's a process to do a netstat.[code]How would I do that with the following commands? I'd like to click one button and have these all run one after the other.[code]
netsh winsock reset netsh winsock reset catalog netsh int ip reset netsh firewall reset
used to reset winsock etc etc if having internet problems or after virus infection etc Any way to do this from a button within a VB app? either using these commands or the VB equivalent (if any) - and preferably so I can show result of the commands Darren Rose
I have a pretty simple question, I have a form with a text box and was hoping if it would be possible to get my program to run a command and to use value in the textbox in the command? and if possible then to pipe the output to a text file
ie if my text box has ip address 192.168.1.1 and I click on the run button I want to run the following command
i have been looking everywhere for the method used when you click the [X] Button so like that i can run some commands on form exit. I found Form_Unload method replacing Form with the name of my form and no luck. I'm sure there has been some talk on the subject but searching forum shows nothing that seems to work.
I have a console application I'm using to run scheduled jobs through windows scheduler. All the communication to/from the application is in email, event logging, database logs. Is there any way I can suppress the console window from coming up?
Is there a simple way to have a code library automatically detect if it's being called from a console application or a windows application? I'd like my library not to report to the Windows Event log if it's being called from a console window, but instead report to the console window. If however, it's not being run from within a console window, it should report to the Windows Event Log.
I thought about requiring my the logging component to be passed the log target, but it would be neat if it could just automatically handle these two targets natively. I don't yet require something as extensive as log4net, indeed, if it becomes necessary to provide support to log to a database/file and other as yet unknown logging targets, then I may recommend such a solution. For now though, just having my component auto-detect the environment and log to the console or the event log according to the environment would be plenty.
say I have a library, in which I added a few Console.WriteLine(..) statements tot during the implementation and see w going on when I use the library in a Console AppNow I want to use the same library in an ASP.NET app. Ideally I would be able to log on to the production webserver, and somehow start a command prompt and attach it to the website and see the messages in real time as they occur. How do I do that?
I am currently working on an application, where I am using a console application, that will set up the application prior to the main form is run. This is no problem I've got that all working perfectly, the only problem I have is that the console is showing while the application is running, I was wondering whether anyone knows any way in which I would be able to hide the console before it gets shown to the user.
How do I get the console from closing immediatley upon opening in a Console Application program? I have all of the code written but when I run the program it pops up the console window and then immediatley exits so I am unable to read what is in the window to see if my program is operating correctly. This is the first time I've ever used a console window so I don't know where in the code I would need to put "whatever it is" I might need to put to keep the window open until closed by the user.
It sounds confusing but it's not really. What I need is basically a way to emulate the console style text, without using a console. What I'm really doing is trying to do a matrix effect on my form background, by drawing symbols and moving them, alternating their colors (see this video for what I mean).
Is there a way to do this effectively with a timer and a draw event, with the timer calling the draw event and changing the intervals?
I'm trying to run an app (GacUtil) which is normally run through a console window, directly in my winforms app, but I keep getting the error: "The system cannot find the file specified"
Here is the Dim AppName = "gacutil" Dim BaseOptions = " /i" Dim oStartInfo As New ProcessStartInfo Dim sFull As String Dim sStartPath As String = Path.GetDirectoryName(TextBox1.Text) [Code] .....
In this case, the DLL is in C:, and 'GacUtil' has been added to the Environment path variable. I can put a break point on the next to the last last line, copy and past the output of the 'sfull' variable into a command prompt and it will run perfectly. (I've tried adding oStartInfo.UseShellExecute=False, removing the whole workingDirectory property line and just changing sFull so that it has the Startpath also, but I still get the error)
However, when I try it in the Winforms app I'm creating, I get the error. Process.Start(oStartInfo)
I have already asked about the problem in java forum.Now i think the solution is only possible through microsoft products.Problem is i want to get the handle of a application and send commands to that application.Is it possible commands are send to combo box , text area, buttons etc..
